Roxi's mountain

A Story by ben

And then Lewis asks, “How does Jane fits into this?”

Miss Purdy shifts her weight to where she is looking directly at him. “She will be used as a decoy knowing that Benny will risk his life to save hers.” “He doesn’t play fair, does he.”

“I hate him so.”

Lewis looks to his hands, and then to miss Purdy. “Is there a way to break the curse?”

“Four must go through the doorway two at a time. And once to the other side, before them will be the first of three worlds that must be crossed before entering the land of trees. It is here, where hanging from a thread tied to a single branch shall be a key that unlocks the door. Once pushed opened, all of this will be no longer be for I will be back home where I belong.” That said, she goes on to say, “Many have tried, and unfortunately, all have failed but I’m asking for your help anyways.”

“Tell us where we need to go.” Miss Purdy gives forth a kind look before she says, “Follow me.”

Her last instructions are, “Two at a time means side by side.”

Arms around one another, Lewis and O’Malley step through.

One is smoking a cigarette while the other keeps quiet all the while Lewis and O’Malley keep on walking towards the two with their backs against a barricade.
